Chapter 206 Remembering Everything
Xie Wanning entered the secret room and found a chair to sit down.
She saw the figure carrying her with his back to her and said with a hint of helplessness, "Si Jinchuan, didn't you arrange for someone to call me here? What's the matter?"
Xie Wanning isn't stupid. When Si Jinchuan handed her the white-level token, wasn't that a blatant hint at his identity?
Si Jinchuan stopped pretending to be profound and took off his mask to sit opposite Xie Wanning.
"Junior Sister Xie, it's been a long time," Si Jinchuan said politely.
"Si Jinchuan, you didn't invite me here just to chat, did you? You said before that you had a way to restore my memories, what was it?" Xie Wanning asked anxiously. She desperately wanted to know who the person who appeared in her dreams and left her the mysterious letter was.
“Junior Sister Xie’s memories have been deliberately erased. Neither memory-restoring pills nor magical artifacts can help you recover them, because you haven’t forgotten what happened before; you have no memory of what happened before at all,” Si Jinchuan analyzed.
Did his words mean that Xie Wanning couldn't recover her memories?
"What should I do?" Xie Wanning covered her head in frustration. She tried desperately to recall, but her mind was blank. Her past memories were fragmented, and it was clear that many important parts were missing.
"I certainly have a way, but I need Junior Sister Xie to pay the corresponding reward." Si Jinchuan finally revealed his true purpose.
"What reward?"
"I need to meet with the Four Divine Beasts and the Demon Emperor."
"What are you going to do?" Xie Wanning asked warily.
Si Jinchuan chuckled and asked in return, "Is that important? Junior Sister Xie, you only need to answer yes or no."
"As long as you don't harm them, I can grant your request." Xie Wanning nodded, thinking that with Si Jinchuan's cultivation level, he couldn't harm Qingqiu Yu and the four divine beasts for the time being.
"Okay." Si Jinchuan cast a mental spell on Xie Wanning.
Xie Wanning finally breathed a sigh of relief and raised her question: "Since even medical cultivation can't solve my amnesia problem, what method do you have?"
Si Jinchuan smiled and closed his eyes. When he looked up again, his scarlet eyes turned gold, and in his hand was a golden orb of light that trembled slightly.
Xie Wanning was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She suddenly realized that Si Jinchuan possessed divine power. Could he be someone sent by the Heavenly Dao?
She stood up and took two steps back.
Si Jinchuan sighed softly and explained, "Junior Sister Xie, I won't hurt you. Back in the Cloud Soaring Sect's secret realm, Ye Qianqian ordered me to kill you, and I had to find a way to deceive Ye Qianqian to save your life. If I really wanted to harm you, I would never have talked to you so much."
"No, you had the intention to kill me before, so why are you helping me now?" Xie Wanning frowned, a layer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead, wetting her bangs, and there was a hint of fear in her eyes.
"I was entrusted with this task. You see, my current identity is not only the head of the Shadow Pavilion, but also the head of the Black Market. The upper echelons of the Black Market are intricate and complex. If it weren't for Qin Muyang's permission, I wouldn't have been able to become the head of the Black Market in such a short time. Sect Leader Liu can vouch for me."
Liu Zetao, who was dozing off by the door, was jolted awake when his name was mentioned. He stood up straight and nodded: "Brother Qin did indeed ask me to help Fellow Daoist Si become the Black Market Master. Brother Qin and Fellow Daoist Si have made a deal."
"Yes, the deal is simple. Qin Muyang asked me to protect your safety." Si Jinchuan chuckled, his tone sincere.
However, it was a difficult transaction, and Si Jinchuan couldn't help but tremble. At that time, Qin Muyang learned that Si Jinchuan had caused Xie Wanning's soul to shatter, and he led the entire black market to attack the Shadow Pavilion. Qin Muyang was truly determined to fight Si Jinchuan to the death and destroy the entire Shadow Pavilion. In the end, it was only after Si Jinchuan backed down that they were granted half an hour to talk.
After their conversation, Qin Muyang and Si Jinchuan reached a deal. Si Jinchuan would no longer harm Xie Wanning and would protect her safety, while Qin Muyang would hand over the position of the next Black Market Leader to Si Jinchuan.
Xie Wanning didn't believe it. She felt that the deal Si Jinchuan made was completely unfair. Why would Qin Muyang give the position of Black Market Pavilion Master to Si Jinchuan?
"Why did Qin Muyang give you the position of the next Black Market Pavilion Master? Did you threaten Qin Muyang?" Xie Wanning said indignantly.
Si Jinchuan wasn't annoyed. He simply said, "Junior Sister Xie seems to have forgotten that Fellow Daoist Qin knows divination. Do you think he might have known his fate all along, which is why he used the black market as a condition for me to protect you?"
Xie Wanning stood there, stunned. She suddenly understood why Qin Muyang had risked his life to save her. Qin Muyang knew he would die, yet he still came to the Chaos Sea to rescue her and had prepared a way out for her.
"Alright, I will keep my promise. Take it, this is your memory." Si Jinchuan came to Xie Wanning and handed her the ball of light.
The sphere of light was warm, and Xie Wanning looked at it somewhat helplessly.
“This really is your memory,” Si Jinchuan explained. “I’ve seen your memories before, which is why I know about your past experiences.”
Previously, Si Jinchuan had peered into Xie Wanning's memories in order to figure out the relationship between Xie Wanning and Xie Wanxun, but he never expected that these memories would be useful.
The ball of light entered Xie Wanning's body, filling the depleted parts of her memories like a river.
Xie Wanning remembered everything, including Xie Wanxun's existence and why she had been in a coma for a year.
"Break the ice!"
An ice blade shot towards Si Jinchuan, but Si Jinchuan did not dodge and took the blow head-on.
"puff!"
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Si Jinchuan knelt on one knee, clutching his chest wound. Liu Zetao rushed forward to help Si Jinchuan up, but Si Jinchuan refused.
Xie Wanning, holding the Luoze Sword, approached Si Jinchuan step by step. Liu Zetao was about to intervene, but Si Jinchuan deterred him with a look.
"Are you satisfied now, Junior Sister Xie? Or perhaps you'd like another strike?" Si Jinchuan looked up, meeting Xie Wanning's icy gaze.
"Relieve my anger? How could that be! I wish I could kill you a thousand times over. You almost caused my soul to be scattered, and you even made my sister disappear. Si Jinchuan, your crimes are unforgivable!" Xie Wanning plunged the sword in her hand deep into Si Jinchuan's shoulder, and she said coldly, "Speak, why did you want to kill me? And where did my sister go?"
Si Jinchuan spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was deathly pale, and his body trembled with pain, but he still said, "I want to kill you because I only accept Wanxun's existence, and you have taken over her body. And Wanxun has fallen into demonic possession in order to save you."
"Where is she?" Xie Wanning plunged the sword deeper into the ground, gritting her teeth as she spoke.
"She is... in the Chaos Sea!" Si Jinchuan said, supporting himself on the ground with one hand and enduring the excruciating pain. "Before you sealed the Chaos Sea, Wanxun jumped into it for some reason. My men did not see her come out of the Chaos Sea."
Xie Wanning gasped in shock. She couldn't believe that her lover and sister had both perished in the chaotic sea.
Unable to accept reality, she stumbled back a few steps and slumped helplessly into a chair.
"Qin Muyang... Sister... why are you all leaving?"
Si Jinchuan drew his Luoze sword and accepted the recovery pills Liu Zetao offered. Seeing Xie Wanning looking distraught, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Junior Sister Xie, you don't need to despair. Fellow Daoist Qin and Wanxun are not dead."
"How did you know?!" Xie Wanning jumped up from her chair and rushed forward to ask Si Jinchuan.
